With Bethesda releasing Special and Anniversary editions of the game along with a steady stream of DLCs, someone contemplating of whether to go for one or the other is bound to be a bit confused as to which edition will include what details. If you are wondering if you should go for the Special Edition or no, we have the details here

Does The Skyrim Special Edition Come With DLCs

Yes, The Skyrim Special Edition includes all the 3 DLCs – Dawnguard, Hearthfire and Dragonborn. It also includes a visual upgrade to the game with remastered art and effects, dynamic depth-of-field and so on. The Special Edition also brings the power of mods to consoles – which was earlier restricted to only PC. The Skyrim Special Edition is included along with Xbox Game Pass and in PS Plus Extra and Premium. The game is also generally available at a discount on Steam.

Is Skyrim Special Edition The Best Version Of Skyrim?

Skyrim Special Edition was launched in 2016 for PC, Xbox One and PS4. On the 10 year anniversary for the game in Nov 21, Bethesda launched the Anniversary Edition which included the Special Edition and upgrades for next-gen consoles, Survival mode, Fishing, and several Community Club Mods with their own quests, armour, etc. This makes the Anniversary Edition the most updated and polished version of Skyrim available. If you already own the Special Edition, the Anniversary Edition can be purchased at an incremental cost. We have all the details for the Anniversary Edition here.

Hope that answers all questions for the Skyrim Special Edition. Let us know if you are planning to enter the world of Skyrim once more to fully experience the DLCs and the additional content once more – particularly since there does not look to be any possibility of an Elder Scrolls VI in the near future.
